No More Bumps! - A Few Shaving Tips

Many subbies shave their nether regions to please their Masters/Mistresses, and we all know the pain that can be involved! Here are a few tips for obtaining a smooth shave, without the red rash!

Most importantly, start with a very sharp quality razor. Disposable razors are lower quality with only one or two blades that grow dull very quickly. I would highly suggest splurging for a high quality razor with three blades. I've discovered that the men's Mach 3 works impressively well in any area of the body. The blades for this razor come in packs of four, so I buy a pack for him and a pack for me. If you do choose to use disposables, use each razor once and throw it away.

If you wet shave, lather is necessary for a smooth and pain free shave. What product you use will depend on your skin type, any allergies you may have, and personal preference. I prefer to use a fragrance-free soap like Dove or Ivory because they cause less trouble in the feminine infection department. For men, there's little to worry about here. There are all kinds of shaving gels out there, and if they come in a fragrance free version, I'm sure they would work well.

If it's an option, shave every two days as opposed to every day. This will really help avoid the red bumpy rash that you can sometimes get from shaving.

Exfoliate! Get a loofah sponge and scrub your skin. Often the red bumps left from shaving are caused by hairs getting trapped under dead skin when they try to grow out, otherwise known as in-grown hairs. By exfoliating, you remove the dead skin and the hairs are able to grow freely. That is, until you shave again!

And lastly, get into a routine. Eventually your body will get used to shaving and the red rash will occur less often (if you get it at all).
